like hardly any other ambassador of modern rhein main house music, christian burkhardt has experienced a true rocket-like takeoff in the last year. burkhardts cocoon debut ep stopover goa has, after one year, still a place of honour in many djs record cases. also his legendary live set in the pouring rain at last years green & blue may belong to the lasting memories of a life dedicated to electronic music. the heidelberg-born producer has already worked for la peña, raum…musik and oslo, and his collaborations with einzelkind and sascha dive became a talking point, too. with his second ep for cocoon, he again sets new standards. theres nobody around who is able to alienate vocals from the collective memory of afro-american culture into a hallucinogenic cocktail without harmful side effects in such a way than burkhardt is. nevertheless, and despite the massive, forward-pushing bass drum and hand claps, he never loses the focus of his soul. so - open your mind, we wish you lots of fun with heart and mind and the considerably acid-like waffles, while the tropical-hypnotic seagull atmosphere of twentysecondcenturydrama already whets the appetite for the upcoming club summer season of 2012.

the irresistible electronic trio formed by antonio pecori stefano meucci and andrea giacchetti mainly known as the clover strikes back on bosconi records with another strong 4 tracks ep. after an year spent into researchin and experimenting in their own studio, jammin for hours like a proper band as they are, using analogue machines, freaky instruments and concrete sounds, our lovely boys, always keepin their distinctive funky n groovy attitude, turned the page of their past west-coast inspired funky house vibe and changed the way of seeing club music into giving life to a completely new, fresh and personal house style. the whole ep sounds like house music influenced by post rock bands like tortoise and kraut legends like can and this 12inch is an absolut winner that sees on a side the psychedelic tribal funk of goodies while on the second cut theres the subliminal mood of wandering souls, b side instead goes more spiritual and rockin thanks to the manipulated percussive trip of find yourself and the darkdroning session of amsterdam house don san proper remixing goodies. a real four season ep!

>aspen< is the name of christian loefflers single before his debut album on ki called >a forest<. the name of the single is not to be misunderstood as a dedication to the ski resort in colorado. its rather a dedication to christian loefflers home region in the north of germany. loeffler walked out into the forests near darss, to take field recordings of the trees that commonly grow in that area, which are called >aspen<. the landscape near darss is characterized by signs of storm and rough sea climate, but is also considered as a popular health resort in germany. the tracks on >aspen< create this contrary atmosphere: noise and silence, destruction and peacefulness, electronic sounds and traditional instruments unite in harmony. the cover artwork for >aspen< was taken by christian loeffler himself in the forests of darss.

after his ace remix for nicolas jaar s >space is only noise< here on circus company, our man dave aju is back with an appropriate dose of in-between original music for the fall season. taken from his upcoming album project that uses vintage inherited recordings as sound sources, >all together now< is a beautifully unique track that is guaranteed to move people with its irresistible groove. indeed, the aptly titled jam brings together and bridges gaps of various kinds, from lo-fi and hi-fi to under water and outer space, with classic-flavored dynamic percussive elements, spiraling futuristic leads, and melodic synth work sprinkled with aju s distinctive voice, encouraging us to join in on the live collective claps that accent the cut. the building bass pulses and warm instrumentation stack up toward the ceiling, until a fresh breakdown spreads things out to release the pressure. amsterdam don san proper brings an equally unique and refreshing remix to the table, with a rugged take on the track complete with cool guitar licks, modular effects, and contrasting additional vocal stylings. similarly dynamic in the drum workout department but with an extra rawness, it is a fantastic complement to the original that rounds out the release perfectly.

droid resident artists david flores (audio injection / truncate) and vangelis + vidal vargas (raiz) combine their production elements on the degrees of motion ep. david has been burning up the industry charts with his latest raw vibe alias truncate. the spring/summer season in europe would have been quite silent had it not been for the phrases concentrate and focus. with releases and remixes on enemy, modularz and his own truncate imprint, david has enjoyed strong support from renowned acts dettmann, klock, luke slater, chris liebing, speedy j, dvs1 and countless others. the members of raiz, vangelis and vidal vargas, have also been making waves with their work on historia y violencia, silent steps, gynoid, and droid. on this collaboration david and the vargas brothers combine the dry and groovy tool perfection of truncate with the concept and sense of depth raiz has been developing over the last year. the result is a series of 3 flawless tracks exemplifying the degrees of motion. inertia builds the ep with heavy drum programming and warm pad work. flux takes the energy up a notch with hard swing percussion, sharp analog noise and arctic synthesis. jude law leaves his seed. rhythm completes the cycle with a deeply grounded pulse, accented by an enigmatic call to consciousness and presence. degrees of motion is a solid showcase of this production teams potential.
